It Seems I Came to Another World, Now What Should I Do

Episode 499: First War, Great Pause Just Before War

At the dawn of the night, issue a decree and gather the adventurers. I was originally staying at the Variety Inn, but the order was cumbersome, so I have made up the difference and have them stay at the Hot Springs Inn. The room has also been confirmed, so it will be communicated without any problems.

The participating soldiers are off duty. I was asking for standby at the barracks all day yesterday. There was a possibility of a night raid, but given the lack of sleep to fight, I chose to have him go home. The scouts who are asking the boulders to keep an eye on them will come back before the army moves.

We all ate well in the morning because we didn't know when we could have lunch. I thought Lot, Fia, Dollar and Rossa were going to be there. That was not the case, and after the meal I was preparing them lightly. I'm close and wonder if it's like that. Tiana was talking to Kabia about something, but she was relieved that Kabia was smiling bitterly and stroking her head, so, oh, it wasn't like we were special.

When I left the Lordship Hall, everyone who worked gathered to drop me off at the grand total. Ast and Teessia smile and speak with a slight apprehension. Taro and Hime left it with the usual samurai. One stroke of the two and we all head out of town together.

The rendezvous point is just around the corner from the east gate. As the current situation does not know what path the enemy forces will take, it stands by in the closest proximity to 'Lisatia'. Soldiers and adventurers gradually gathered, but decided to ask everyone to confirm the final move. Sit down and rest, of course. If I was nervous now, I wouldn't have a body.

The decree continues to come and go in the woods. The oak settlement itself is not the deepest part of the forest, and due to the 'Lisatia' stopover, the report rises due to a deviation of about half a day. Looking at the clock, around eight o'clock, a report was raised from the transmission confirming that the army of oaks had left the settlement. Did you leave last night around 7: 00 to 8: 00...... When it comes to moving in the army, we can't do it in half a day. I think he wanted to attack us in the sun. Hmm, if it stays like this, the contact will be quite past noon...

"Ray, given the speed of progress on the oak side, it's way over lunch, isn't it?

"Right. If the enemy has moved, we are thinking it is time to leave. If you go a little further, you won't have any contact."

"Okay. I'll give you a hard time, but it's nice to meet you. I'll go back to town from the end and get you something to eat."

"Oh, right. It's a little early, but it'll also boost morale. I think it's good."

"It's troublesome to be too tattered, but you're tired even if you're too stuck. Well, I asked for the settlement."

"I'm in awe. Expect good news."

When Ray says so, he starts moving with intelligence units. Lina and the others move on. Upon arrival at the settlement, Lina and the others will join the other scouts and have them continue straight to the outskirts of the forest. Assuming even through that net, there are rays in the settlement, so they can crush it.

"Sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you could muster some company."

When I tell the transmission, I respond with momentum and rush out. After a while, everyone who was scattered gathers.

"Information from the scouts came in. It was about two hours after sunset that the orcs left the settlement. I don't think we can do it in twelve hours because it takes twelve hours on the foot of scouts to get over a hundred troops. I see it will be past noon. A little early, but I'm thinking of going back to town on some unit to get a meal. Is there a problem?

Everyone nods when they hear it.

"Well, I'll ask everyone to notify me. I'll take care of the split, but we'll all be in good shape to finish the meal by noon. When we're done, let's eat too."

If you tell them so, they'll all head back to their stations. Cellular food would be good, but it would be more morale to eat warm delicious food and wage war. But a war without a communications environment is a real hassle. It would have been nice if it was a customer situation used by people, as it was when Norweh, but when it comes to doing it all on its own, it's going to cry.

When we can gradually flow people, all of our people come together. The person in charge of the boulder couldn't leave the scene, so he decided to eat what he had brought from town in the carriage. The waiter tells me that the meal arrived when he was talking to everyone in the carriage about tactics. When I see it, he brings in the dimensional torso pan, the one that baked the meat, and the bread in the cage. I'll have everyone's cup ready for a while and pour the soup. The meat was skewered boar meat. There are plenty of vegetables in the soup, so volumetrically there is no problem. I haven't had that much time since breakfast and I'm done with it because eating too much makes me move poorly. I originally asked for a small amount, so at the stage where the dish I had been brought in was gone, I would have it scattered all over again.

Towards noon, the frequency of transmissions increased slightly. We're getting closer, so the scouts are investigating and getting back less distance. The sun is rising and more detailed information is being added. As for the equipment, the iron spear was the main weapon in the leather armor. After all, iron is produced in mass...... Thinking about the future, I feel dark when it comes to combat behavior. However, it has nothing to do with this war, so I change my mind and give instructions to the whole army. Forward to the forest side as some direction has been identified. Ask your buddies to adjust their soldiers in motion on the road.

Proceed smoother than you thought and lay a formation once just around the middle of the woods with 'Lisatia'. Heavy infantry on the wall, its left and right diagonal behind the crossbow unit and behind it the lightweight infantry unit. If the heavy infantry wall breaks down, the light infantry cuts in and follows. Conversely, when the wall breaks down in a frontal collision, the tactics themselves need to be fundamentally reviewed.

When I heard about the preaching, I knew I could still afford it. Tell them the last big pause and deploy the simple toilet. Now, when this break is over, I guess we'll take over with the final formation building.
